We're Broads.. and We Jog :-)

I am so glad that everyone came last night! I had a great time..here are some pic's and let me know if you want any emailed to you.

I hope everyone is as excited as I am. The purpose of this race is just to get out and have a blast. Whit and I were talking about the pressure of wanting to place and I really don't want that to have anybody worried. There are almost 600 teams and though I think everyone on our team is an amazing runner I don't think the focus should be about what place we get (but I do like to think about teams I would like to beat ;-) Nothin' wrong with having some pride, but, most of all, let's just concentrate on having a *@#! good time! Beisdes, the awards haven't been all that great.. it's not like they're big fake jewels or anything cool like that :-)

EXTRASPACE.COM

We have a SPONSOR! So apparently my youngest daughter charm worked. Well acutally I sent him an e-mail because he is too busy to talk and apparently too busy to think things through because he was like sure we will do it. So there we go $360 down. GO EXTRASPACE, I still think it would be funny to put extraspace.com on our bums!

I listed the ones that I have down the side. If you are not on there and want us blurking on your blog feel free to post the link :-)

Bloggy Blogs

Many of you don't know me, I don't know many of you and I would really like to get to know everyone a little better. Can we make a blog list for the Joggin' Broads? Mine is Trail Runnings. Post yours in a comment below :)

Motivation & Inspiration

Many of you have read Kristin Armstrong's articles in Runner's World, but did you also know she does a blog online? Her most recent entry really struck me and gave me a boost of motivation and inspiration - I thought I would share it with all of you! Here is the link -

Proud of it

I love these ads and any others that make you proud to be a runner :-) That guy has nothing on Camie when it comes to being an expert snot rocket'er'

Favorite Website.

So I was introduced to this website called fitsugar.com and I am addicted. I thought since I know you all love to work out (run) you might enjoy! It has running tips, health tips, diet tips, and also can be quite entertaining. If you want to check it out you should! Can't wait to see you all.

Slight change already...seeing as that Whit will be sitting on a beach in Mexico on the 21st we will be nice to her and move it to the 28th! As long as she brings us some Chiclet gum & Pina colodas!! :-)

Howdy Broads!

I thought this would be a fun way to keep in touch about the relay..since we live so far apart and hardly ever see each other :-) If anyone has any training ideas, van ideas, and so on you should all be able to post on this page. Just log in with your Google account..i think. Let me know if it doesn't work.

So first up..we need to meet and eat! We were thinking April 21st @ 6pm @ my house. If you need to bring your kids that's fine. If you don't want to miss your FHE bring your hubby and I will present a short lesson. I am joking of course.. my husband has offered to BBQ and I would never turn him down! What do you want to bring? This will be a fun chance to meet everyone on the team
